Have any of you guys ever used a copy of a manual that has been put on a disk digitaly? i was looking for manuals and this site is offering a disk that has alot of diffrent "hard to get and expensive" manuals. are they hard to see? i know somtimes when i scan a book the pages are a little hard to read on the puter screen. but it looks like to have alot of manuals in one spot whats do you guys think? I already got a hard copy of the servise manual comming.

Bought a CD manual set. Nice things are has Owners, Parts, Servicemans and Wiring Manuals all in one place. Not too difficult to use as is in Adobe format. Images can be enlarged on screen. Takes up only the space of a CD in plastic case. On the other hand it is more difficult to locate a specific item as there are no "black tabs" on the edge of the book. Also of course unless your computer is in your shop you don't have quick access. Hands get dirty/greasy would you rather grab a paper manual or mouse and keyboard? Then again $25 for the CD or ?$ for the 4 manuals in paper if you can get them? Maybe a combination of the 2 and/or some prior planning would work well. Say the servicemans manual in paper at the shop and the CD for when you know what you need for parts or are planning the next repair?

We had parts books on CAT equip & int trks Could not find what we wanted & if we did you had to hunt for it every time . Maybe just too old for some technology

I've used CD ROM manuals before for my cars - I'm not happy at all. Poor images, hard to find what section you need to bring up, etc. I'll take the paper manual any day.

Sorry I don't have any experience with the ones advertised for tractors.
